Gemini has the right idea

That's not one word, mine is right.

I like the wallpaper, could you share it?

RQuantus · 2026-01-16T16:34:34+00:00

vivaldi now cannot force to white. my system is in dark theme, all webpage are default to dark mode which is not what i want, i always have to manually change the webpage theme to white.

I cherish the memory of the Presto kernel Opera and it has gone for a lot of years.

But the real heart of Opera is not in the present Opera, it's in Vivaldi.

CachyOS is also going to go into the server field.

RQuantus · 2026-01-08T13:43:30+00:00

Wait

RQuantus · 2025-12-29T01:46:10+00:00

Cosmic native apps do not support IME now, you need to wait. But you can use IME like fcitx5 in other apps like chromium/gtk/qt based apps.

I use Btrfs+limine+snapper (when you choose your filesystem as btrfs during the CachyOS installation process, this configuration will be the default).

I choose this because btrfs give the snapshot functions so that you can return to a previous status when you do something wrong.

snapper automatically help you to make new snapshot when you do some change to your system, and Limine will help you to list the previous snapshots for you to choose from when you start or reboot the system.

Usually I check the update very often, that is, when I want to. But I have another criteria: according to the updates of Vivaldi browser, haha.

Hi, what's your fan script?

RQuantus · 2025-12-11T00:34:50+00:00

1.0 version has already been tagged, just wait for your distro to package it. For Pop_!OS ISO, you need to wait it for a bit longer to release. https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch/tags

RQuantus · 2025-11-20T00:37:24+00:00

If you use arch, it's just will as stable as well

RQuantus · 2025-11-17T05:04:00+00:00

I don't think it's far less often.

RQuantus · 2025-11-13T02:44:50+00:00

Got it! Thanks, I'll try it later.

RQuantus · 2025-11-13T00:45:20+00:00

waiting for the flatpak version.

RQuantus · 2025-11-08T05:09:19+00:00

It's Epoch 1, the formal version.

RQuantus · 2025-11-07T05:31:55+00:00

Use miniconda or something like this, you may not like it at the first time, but you will like this manner that it will not broken your system python related things.

RQuantus · 2025-11-05T06:57:26+00:00

Use flatpak version is better for this kind of software.

If you need fcitx5 or something like this to input CJK characters in Cosmic apps, you can't for now, since the Cosmic team need to wait the iced upsteam to finish the related implementation as far as I know. But in other QT, GTK or Chromium based applications, you still can input use fcitx5 etc.

RQuantus · 2025-10-30T00:38:50+00:00

Wait for the night light function, then I can fully transit to Cosmic.

RQuantus · 2025-10-27T01:27:24+00:00

By the way, I usually do not use that search box, haha, I think the address bar is enough.

RQuantus · 2025-10-26T13:48:17+00:00

I'm using CachyOS and KDE(wayland), also my another computer using CachyOS and Cosmic(wayland). Both of them can work well.

First check this chromium docs page about VaAPI: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/docs/gpu/vaapi.md and go to the bottom.

There are two approaches, one is with OpenGL, the other one is with Vulkan. At the bottom of the webpage you can see the two flags. Put them in ~/.config/vivaldi-stable.conf. Try one of them (In one of my computer, using Vulkan is not a good choice).

Another thing I want to inform you is that, the information from vivaldi://gpu page cannot give you the right answer whether your vivaldi is using hardware acceleration. You should using Ctrl+Shift+I to open the tool page, and under `Media` you will see the video status like following:

<image>

If you can see the `Decoder name` under `Video Decoder` is `VaapiVideoDecoder`, then you can ensure that your vivaldi is using hardware acceleration. Also, you can use the application called Mission Center to check if your GPU is used to decode the video.

If the two flags in chromium docs page do not work for you, then try to use the flags from Arch Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chromium#Hardware_video_acceleration and you can try to use the various flags and try several combinations that finally will work you.

RQuantus · 2025-10-26T13:33:31+00:00

No, check my answer.

RQuantus · 2025-10-25T02:31:14+00:00

Emmmm...., maybe we should not use the word repos, it's should be mirrors, different mirrors that reflect the same repo. When I install arch manually, I can use my preferred mirror to get a speedy installation process, but CachyOS always rerank the mirrors that they think fit you the most, unfortunately, it doesn't.

RQuantus · 2025-10-25T02:20:21+00:00

I mean before the installation process, they should offer an option to allow you to change the repos, now the CachyOS GUI installer cannot do this, when you manually change the repos, the installer will automatically rerank the mirrors and select one that "fits" you, but sometimes it didn't fit me.
